• Monitors evaporator temperature and interrupts the defrost heater when the set limit is reached
• Helps resolve symptoms like warm fridge/freezer, heavy frost on evaporator, or long/no defrost cycles
• Can cause frequent temperature swings or compressor short cycling if failing
• Typically mounted on or near the evaporator coil in the freezer

• Disconnect power before servicing; defrost ice as needed to access the evaporator area
• Note wire locations; replace using existing connectors or approved splices
• Ensure the thermostat clips firmly to the evaporator tubing in the original location

The Tube-Inlet is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is the component that connects the water supply lines allowing water to flow into the refrigerator's ice maker and water dispenser. The tube inlet is designed to securely attach to the back of the fridge and easily connect to supply hoses through compression nuts and fittings.  

Causes of a bad tube-inlet include mineral or sediment buildup within the tubing restricting flow, cracks or leaks from wear and tear over time, or loose or damaged fittings. With normal use, water pressure and temperature fluctuations can cause small issues to develop. 

Symptoms of a bad tube-inlet are:

• Slow or incomplete filling of the ice maker or water dispenser  
• Water leaks from connection points
• Loose fittings or burst tubing

This OEM Whirlpool replacement part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

• Typical signs it may be needed: loose or misaligned dispenser housing, ice or air leaking at the chute, frost buildup around the dispenser, inconsistent ice dispensing

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove the dispenser trim/control to access the housing; handle wiring and tabs carefully
• Remove mounting fasteners, replace the support, and transfer any reusable hardware
• Reassemble, restore power, and test ice dispensing and chute seal

This air baffle assembly regulates and directs cold airflow inside the refrigerator, typically between the freezer and fresh food sections. Replacing a damaged baffle helps restore balanced air distribution for more even cooling and stable temperatures throughout. What it does:

• Controls the amount and direction of airflow to maintain set temperatures
• Helps reduce warm spots or over-cooling in the fresh food compartment
• A cracked, missing, or misaligned baffle may lead to a warm refrigerator while the freezer stays cold
• Air leaks or obstruction at the baffle can cause frost or unusual air noise near the vent

• 1 air baffle assembly

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove shelves and the interior vent/diffuser cover to access the baffle
• Retain and transfer any screws, clips, or seals from the original part as required
• Seat the new baffle fully so the seal engages evenly; reassemble and verify airflow

This spigot body assembly routes water from the refrigerator supply to the dispenser and replaces a worn, cracked, or leaking dispenser spigot. It restores proper water flow and helps stop drips or visible leaks at the dispenser. What it does:

• Channels water from the supply line through the dispenser area for normal dispense operation.
• Provides the structural mounting for the dispenser valve and actuator components.
• Common symptoms it can address: leaking or dripping at the dispenser, visible cracks or broken spigot housing, or intermittent water flow from the dispenser.
• Works with existing dispenser valve and seals when those components are undamaged.

• Disconnect power to the appliance and shut off the water supply before starting work.
• Access may require removing the refrigerator door panel or inner dispenser bezel.
• Inspect and replace any worn O-rings or seals during reassembly to prevent leaks; tighten fasteners only to specified torque if provided by the manufacturer.

This lower ice crusher bin is the bottom housing of the freezer's ice container. It supports the auger and crusher assembly to help prevent jams and leaks, so your dispenser can reliably deliver cubed or crushed ice.
